Roofing contractors working in Dublin
Dublin's housing stock runs from Victorian and Edwardian terraces with natural slate and cast iron rainwater goods, through mid-century estates with concrete tiles, to recent developments and extensions with flat roofs. Each generation of roof fails in its own way, and the right repair depends on knowing which you are dealing with.
Vantage Roofing provides roof repairs, maintenance and replacement across Dublin city and county — the north Dublin coastal suburbs, the south city and its older terraces, and the western commuter belt around Blanchardstown, Lucan and Tallaght. Two mobile roofing teams are on the road most days, which is why we can usually get to a leak in one part of the city while scheduled work continues elsewhere.
The work ranges from a single slipped slate to a full roof replacement, and we would rather tell you a roof has years left in it than sell a re-roof it does not need. Every job starts with an inspection, and quotations are given in writing. We also cover parts of Kildare, Meath and Wicklow.

Local Knowledge
Common roofing problems in Dublin
What we typically find on roofs in this part of Dublin.
Nail sickness on older slate roofs
Period terraces around the city commonly reach the point where fixing nails corrode and slates begin slipping every winter, even though the slate itself is still sound.
Chimney stacks and flashing
Dublin houses typically have one or more stacks. Eroded pointing, cracked flaunching and tired lead flashing account for a very large share of the leaks we are called to.
Flat roofs on extensions
Rear extensions and dormers across the city carry flat roofs. Standing water, failed upstands and split membranes are the usual causes of ceiling stains below.
Wind exposure on the coast
Properties nearer the bay take more wind and salt-laden air, which is hard on ridges, verges, flat roof edges and rainwater goods.
Emergency roof repairs in Dublin
Routine roofing work is scheduled during normal hours, but emergency roof repair call-outs run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. If a storm has stripped slates off a city terrace, or water is coming through a ceiling in the middle of the night, phone 087 466 6010 rather than waiting for morning. We will make the roof safe and stop water getting in, then look at the permanent repair in daylight.

Call 087 466 6010Does a Dublin roof need repairing or replacing?
Most roofs we look at across Dublin are repairable. Replacement becomes the better option when slates are slipping in new places every winter, when the felt or membrane beneath has perished, or where repeated patch repairs have stopped holding. Roof age, the condition of battens and timbers and the covering material all feed into that decision, and an inspection is the only honest way to make it.
